What's your favorite Beer?

Last night: Bruery Tart of Darkness.
Honestly this is one of the first beers I ever drank that got me into beer in the first place.
Reminds me a lot of Funk Metal from Jester King, minus the funkiness. Just awesome.
Tonight: Alesmith Wee Heavy scotch ale.
We just started getting Alesmith beer here in the last week or so, and I decided to try this one out for my first go. Not disappointed at all, sometimes I find scotch ales to be too sweet. This had a nice balance. Nice kick at 10% ABV as well. Will try out some more Alesmith stuff whenever I see more. I picked this one up over their Grand Cru, Horny Devil and Numbskull. I'll likely try all those too at some point.

Out of all the scotch styles/wee heavy stuff, no matter what I always find myself looking forward to an Old Chub. Hear there are barrel aged variations too.
@Broark if you can find Alesmith Speedway Stout, it's a good one. More so if you can find the Vietnamese of Hawaiian Coffee variations when they come out.
-
We should be getting a lot more Oskar Blues stuff as they're opening a brewery here pretty soon.
@Traser2g I've heard good things about the Speedway Stout, so far we just have the ones I mentioned above and 6 packs of their IPA. More should be coming though, just glad to see more breweries represented in the state. -
Yellow Dog Go Fetch and Cariboo.
Yellow dog was really good, Cariboo is gross.

My favorite glass is from Duvel. Not particularly a fan of their beers, but the glass is quite nice. Especially after I scrubbed the name off…

Their standard big tulip?.. Even if, say, To Ol would release one of those with a naked girl on it, and it came with a magical ring that refilled the glass with their Liquid Confidence each time you tapped the glass with it, I wouldn't buy it or use it. I do not get the shape, I do not get how it would stress out a beer's good qualities…
I have a couple of glasses I do know are not "the right ones" for the job, though, and I don't care either, so I guess I can at least relate...

My favorite has been my Teku glass from Tree House, great all around big beer vessel. Sadly it was dropped this weekend and is no more.
I have been liking this big heavy Chimay goblet, and more importantly the Trips n Quads that go in it.

I have a Chimay glass, but I think it's godawful… So is the standard Westmalle glass... The standard Westvleteren glass... Achel... Rochefort... The only good one, brilliant one even, is the Orval glass...
Worst brewery when it comes to glasses, though, is DUPONT... Hands down the most unimaginative shite ever, despite the glorious beers they make... Moinette, Bon Voeux, Saison Dupont,... All dreary, dreadful, downright depressing glasswear assigned to it...
Yes: I spend a lot of time thinking about glasses...
